336 - - Episode 334 Poison Dragon

After surviving attacks by green dragons and wyverns, we arrived at a huge gravity stone island where a poison dragon awaits. A dragon with hideous purple scales, I will show you the power of the Armor of Nature ver.4!

"Gahhhh!"

When the poison dragon noticed me, it squealed loudly and began to stamp its feet with a thud. It seemed to be happy, not angry.　The fact that the island's gravity stone is stable enough to feel only a slight tremor even when that huge body goes wild like that must mean that the island's gravity stone is stable.

"You suddenly started stepping forward, what's going on?

"Maybe they're excited because it's the first time a living creature has set foot on the island?"

Sylphy answers my question with a tilt of her head.

"There are green dragons and wyverns, right?"

"Yuta may not be able to see it with that mask on, but there's a thin layer of poison in the air. I don't think other demons will go near it."

We haven't even done anything yet, and already there's poison in the air. I wondered if Sylphy and the others would be okay, but they didn't say anything, so of course it wouldn't have any effect on the spirits...

"So that poison dragon was lonely?　Can we get along without fighting?"

No way, a tame event against a poison dragon in this situation?　A pet that sprays venom is a tough sell.

"Of course not. The poison dragon is happy because it instinctively knows it has found its prey. It's a demon."

But you've been alive all this time without eating. I'd ask them not to eat if they didn't have to, but I guess they're just trying to snack on us.

"I see."

It would be awkward to fight with someone I can get along with, and I don't think I can keep him, so I guess it would be more helpful if he's ready to fight. A purple mist is spewing from the body and mouth of the thuddingly excited poison dragon. That's definitely poison.

"Gah!"

As I observed the poison dragon, it let out a short cry, the poison from its body disappeared, and it slowly began to move. I had expected it to charge at me, given the image of an assault dragon, but I was wrong. It seems that the plan to get Poison Dragon off the island was impossible anyway.

The poison dragon comes closer with a thudding sound. I'm too lazy to fight at the edge, so I move forward with the support of Bell and the others at my back.

The distance between us and Poison Dragon closes, and a huge body the size of a three-story building is right in front of us. ...... It's still very powerful. Poison Dragon's reptilian eyes stare at me.

It's probably trying to figure out how to kill me. Even though it's a big island, it's not a big place for such a huge body. Besides, there's no vegetation and no flying green dragons or wyverns to get close. Boring, isn't it?

Considering this, I think it is appropriate to kill them easily so that we can't enjoy the game.　If you think that the poison was removed because it would be boring if they died easily, I think you are right.

"Gow!"

Poison dragon is a dragon that is afraid to hit you with its paw. I run to avoid it, and it says, "Gah! They chase after me happily. It's hard for me to attack.

"Hey, hey, calm down!　I'm gonna die. I'm going to die!

After a while of running around and avoiding Poison Dragon's attacks, I guess he got carried away with his fun and games, and the care he had taken not to kill me disappeared, and he chased after me and stomped on me without any hesitation.

"Yuta, what are you doing? Attack me."

"Oh, that's right."

I was so busy running away that I forgot to attack. I thought Bell and the others were having fun, so I joined in the chase, and it didn't feel like a fight anymore.

"Stay away from them!"

After making Belle and the others move away from him, he slashes at the right leg that Poison Dragon has been trying to crush with the biggest magic saw he can find.

"Gah!"

Caught completely off guard, Poison Dragon lets out a surprisingly cute cry of sudden pain. The saw blade has entered so deeply that it must have cut right through to the bone.

Poison Dragon is in agony. Blood sprays from his right paw, and the blood turns into a vaporous purple smoke.

"Geez, is blood poison too?

The wind wall does not react to fog. Even if you can guard against it with natural armor, you don't want to plunge into the poisonous fog. I try to avoid the purple mist produced by the splattered blood, but before I can make a final attack, an enraged Poison Dragon glares at me, perhaps having recovered from its confusion.

"Gaaaahhh!"

At the same time as it screamed, the enraged poison dragon spat out a large amount of purple mist from its mouth. Poison is also emitted from its body, and Poison Dragon's entire body is hidden by the poison.

He is going to kill us completely. Just a moment ago he was happily stomping away, trying to crush me, and now he's being punished like this for just a little counterattack. It's inexcusable.

I glance at Bell and the others while avoiding the fog, and they are looking at me with excited expressions. He seems to be thinking that it's time for his nature armor ver.4. I thought about asking Belle or Sylphy to blow the poisonous fog away, but they are in no mood to do so.

In this case, we should charge in and take out the poison-spewing poison dragon as soon as possible. I looked at Vita and she nodded, so I plunged into the poison mist that was rushing toward me.

Everything in my field of vision turns purple and I can't see anything. I thought I could not see anything because I have a little night vision skill, but darkness and fog are different, apparently.

I give up and run, holding the magic saw out in front of me. He is a huge man, so of course his face is big too. Even if I'm a little off-center, I should be able to reach his face. Then we'll just slice and dice from there. We'll cut them up before they hit us.

I'm a little worried about the poison dragon's face. If that happens, we'll be running under the poison dragon's body ...... and we'll figure it out.

At the same time as Poison Dragon's voice, the wind wall reacts, and for a moment, the fog is caught up in the reaction, and the outline of Poison Dragon is vaguely visible. All that remained was to cut, and I swung the saw around, vertically, horizontally, and diagonally. I hear the poison dragon scream, but I don't care. The earth rumbles, but I cut anyway.

As I'm swinging the saw around like an idiot, suddenly the wind blows, and the fog around me clears at once. It seems that Sylphy has blown away the poisonous mist.

"Yuta, you're already dead!

"Yeah, I didn't see you, so I guess I went a little overboard.

In front of me is the face of Poison Dragon, cut to pieces. I quickly put it in my magic bag, as it looks like it would be bad for Belle and her friends' education. The face is so dismembered that its original shape is not recognizable, and the dragon's fangs, which are probably very valuable, are lying on the ground along with countless pieces of flesh.

Storing the body is not good for education. Fortunately, the splattered blood seems to have evaporated and turned into mist, so the surrounding area is not covered in blood. Though there is still a purple mist rising from the pieces of flesh.

Come to think of it, no green dragons or wyverns have come close to us after all that fuss and fury. Either they are wary of the poison that was blown away, or they simply don't want to go near this island.　Well, I bet they're afraid of the poison.　

"Hey Sylphy, can you dismantle this poison dragon?　If the blood evaporates on contact with the air, I don't see how we can dismantle it. ......"

"I don't know how to dismantle it either. But since it's basically poison, you don't have to dismantle it, do you?　Yuta, when you are alive, don't take out the poison dragon."

So ...... if you accidentally take it out of the magic bag when it's alive, you'll be poisoned. That's it, seal the magic bag completely. We can leave them here or throw them downstairs and they will disappear completely, reducing the number of dangerous items, but we should keep one of them in case they are useful for something.

"Roger that. I'll seal it in the magic bag for now. And Flare, would you mind burning the pieces of meat that are scattered around?

I'll take care of it!

"Oh?　Even if you leave it as it is, it will disappear sooner or later because it is a labyrinth, right?"

"We're going to store this island. I was actually thinking of doing it on the way back, but if the poison dragon is back on the way back, I'll have to defeat it one more time to store it. I don't want to fight someone I can't make money off of."

Poison dragons won't be eaten, and having one is enough. I tell them what I think of the armor of nature while Flare keeps me company as I burn pieces of meat. He is delighted when I thank him for the perfect protection against the poisonous mist, since he was not directly attacked.

Flare burns all the pieces of flesh, and Sylphy and Belle blow the ashes away with the wind. When we return to paradise, we will wash the whole thing in a corner of the dead land.

I ask Sylphy to let me fly and touch the huge gravistone island with my hand to store it. The huge island disappears in an instant. It is safely stored. It is amazing that such a large object disappears in an instant, but there is no phenomenon like air flowing into the place where it disappeared.

"It's gone..." "Cue..." "Wow..." "Coo-coo..." "You did it!" ......"

"Hmm, I knew it was storing houses and stuff, and I had cut down several rock piles to store them, but to see him store such a large island all at once reaffirmed the extraordinary nature of Yuta's pioneering tools."

Bell and the others were thrilled to see the island disappear, and Sylphy said it was crazy. Vita is just smiling and laughing, so I don't know how she feels about it. Well, I agree with Sylphy that it is unusual. An island in a bag is just crazy. But then again, a huge island floating in the sky is an anomaly. And there are dragons. .......

"That's it. I guess we should be thankful for the good performance. More importantly, the island is gone and the green dragons and wyverns are making a fuss. While we have their attention, can you take us to the island with the stairs?"

"Oh, I can fly?"

"Yes, I've worked hard to get here, and my spirit is tired from the showdown with the poison dragon. Let's just go for it and beat it. I'm sorry Sylphy, but I want you to set up the place so that I can concentrate on fighting one of them.

"Okay. Let's go.

We head for the island with the highest staircase to catch the eye of the flying Green Dragon. Green Dragon, there is an island and we can't beat it just by dropping feathers, but we can beat it up if we work together with Belle and the others. Let's get this over with.
